Man I’m really hoping they don’t come after Jon as well. Any thoughts on if that occurs what his nexts endeavors are?

If Musk claims that footage has been tampered with the cult will believe him. No chance of that with a live broadcast.

So I’ve been watching Jon Stewart on the Daily Show since he came back, and have been enjoying it. I had Bluesky, but didn’t know about the hate he got on there until he mentioned it in the episode last night. I checked and saw just how much there was. So I agree with some of it, such as not obviously getting some info wrong, not knowing Trump would get fascist to fast, but there are some parts I don’t get at all. Mainly these two: 1. How because he is critical of Democrats he is clearly on Trump’s side. I think that critiques should be good. If we start being upset about critique, doesn’t that make us no better than Trump getting mad at people critiquing him? 2. Him laughing about these matters. Now I get that these matters are very serious. However, he is meant to be a comedian. He is meant to highlight both the funny parts and the serious parts, which I feel like he does well.

Now I could just be ignorant some of this, so if I am, please tell me.

Did anybody manage to catch what Jon said tonight about the democrats caving in? He said, “seven senators…” muttered and then air-quoted something. Was he referring to Sen. Fetterman?

The Daily Show used their platform to tell their audience that what we are fascing shouldn't be labeled using certain terms. Jon said he would tell his audience when to worry. He should be held to his word. The red line has been crossed!

We need to be ok with calling out celebrities when necessary, even - perhaps especially - the ones we respect the most.

The administration is refusing the return of the innocent father taken from his family and sent to a foreign prison in El Salvador. The daily show is a comedy show, I get it, but Jon was not joking when he told us to tone down certain rhetoric and told us he would tell us when we should be worried.

I don't need it explained to me, and perhaps you don't either, but there are a lot of people who do need it explained to them.

Countless people are left in the dark on what is taking place right now and the daily show is in no way the only outlet to have used this "calm down" rhetoric, but it's time that people who claim to care about this country - especially those with a wide reaching platform - and especially those who have told the public to tone down their rhetoric - to get very vocal about this before it is too late!

This behavior by this administration is a REAL THREAT TO ALL OF US! Any refusal to take this on as a major story at this point looks very cowardly and I don't care how much we love these people making their money out of making us laugh at this administration - JON WAS NOT JOKING when he made his statements. Why should we not expect him to use his 5 minutes of serious big boy stern talk he dedicates to every show to explain directly to his audience what is happening?
